Title: whirlaway jets. where art thou?
Post by: TVCS on May 21, 2006, 10:47:57 am

Hello everyone.
My brother and I spent all  yesterday afternoon  cleaning the worlds largest patio.  A nice job which I had hoped would only take a couple of hours and be quite profitable.  It would have been if mr Whirlaway had pulled its weight.  The fact of the matter is that one of the jets on the whirlaway's rotating bar is worn down.  >:( >:( >:( See photos.
I have been looking on the old internet trying to find some replacements but have been unsuccesful.  If anyone out there in forum land can point me in the right direction I would be very much appreciative. 
Thanks in advance for any info.
Cheers Ant

Thanks for the replies chaps.
tech-clean got the jets to me next day and they were a good price too.
What a difference new jets make.
Up until now I have been depressed by the speed of the old whirlygig.  Even before the jets was knackered.  Now on the other hand I am in love with it again.  Had a patio and a drive to do yesterday.  Both done by noon.  Before it would have been an all dayer.


Anyway got to go, theres a patio thats in need of a whirl. 
Cheers

Beware, this damage has been caused by either raised flag edges or lose pointing. Always make sure the surface is thorughly swept b4 washing and if dodgy pointing or uneven slabs use a lance.

If you ever need spares www.landypressurewashers.com do  everything you will need including obscure stuff and are extremly helpfull.
